Anyone want to live on the Great Barrier Reef for 6 months and be paid AUS$150,000. The job involves feeding the fish, collecting the mail and cleaning the pool.

The Queensland Government is offering such job. Check it out at http://www.islandreefjob.com/

The job is for real. It is part of a tourism promotion. They reckon the free publicity it has achieved is the equivelant of $13million spent in advertising.

Hello Latan. Correct me if i am wrong. Yes they were chatting about it on a radio hi-fi station. Basically something like a holiday resort caretaker.

Yeah I saw this too, haha good luck in getting that ONE position, that i'm sure, will be applied to by MILLIONS!!

Crap, I'm overqualified.

I saw the story on the CBS News. Sounds like a job everyone would want. I don't however think that they are looking for a 61 year old male to fill the job. :fire:

yeah, doesn't sound like something for a 41yr old 5'8" 200lb. male who has given into pills and quit the gym.......oh, well 20 yrs. ago maybe i'd had a chance.

Crap, I'm overqualified.

You wouldn't want it anyhow, it's warm there... :bill:

 

[Squishy]

True. I'd just be a sweaty mess...

I once saw a "making of" video of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, and at one point, there was a man who was spraying oil or water onto the girl's butt, to enhance the glistening effect for pictures. While this reef thing sounds great, I have to cast my vote to Best Job in the World to the model butt-oiler. :drool:
